Yes I drink lots of water. I did stop the BPC for a week an d I just added it again. We will see.... thanks for the feedback! :D My face got better without the coconut oil...but I just added it back to see if it was just a coincidence. I miss my BPC in the morning.

I haven't been eating anything I haven't had before that I can recall. No exposure to testosterone either. Releasing toxins makes sense. I will look into the face wash that you mentioned as well. I haven't had this problem before but I am greeting older..ugh..my own hormones, possibly dairy that's been treated with…

Thank you! This partly explains this horrible acne I have been getting! :noway:

Eating dinner for breakfast! I love it! Using leftovers mmm bacon! no carb crashing etc..... the list goes on

made it...its great! thanks!

I have a skin disorder ( since age 19 and in my 40's now)....have tried all the topical meds and finally went to a friend who is a TCM...traditional chinese medicine doc....it made all the difference in the world. That is just my opinion. My treatment worked for the core of the disorder not just the symptoms. I use my…

congrats! you look amazing! :)

everyone looks great!~ inspiring! :)

Trader Joes almond meal is great...it is the whole meal with the almond skins. Its the pure almond flour that is expensive. I get it on amazon when I see a sale. Most recipes work with almond meal. When I bake a cake I use the almond flour. Carrot cake works awesome with TJ's almond meal...so good!

you look amazing! :) congrats!

I always thought I had a medium frame at 5'7" almost 5'8", but after finding out I lean towards a large frame I set my goal to 165.

you look great! thanks for sharing!

I destroyed my metabolism on a VLCD ( very low caloriediet) I am doing paleo/primal since a few days ago. I have eaten at BMR and gained 8 pounds , stalled out for the last two months. I am eating at 1200 - 1500 calories again. My BMR is around 1646... I am pretty discouraged but will keep at it until my weight starts…

same problem here...gappy backs and not a good fit...tried old navy stretch shorts...seem to be better but still gap in the back of waist. I have just resorted back to stretch pants and shorts...it's very annoying :(

OK I'm in cw: 203 gw: 193

I use cauli-faux for everything! It's amazing...pizza crust, rice, mac n cheese, curry, mash potatoes, stir fry..thelist goes on

Just started primal...hit a plateau on very low calorie diet after losing 80 pounds. Gained almost 10 pounds back while eating at maintenance calories and and really discouraged. I guess it's time to get my metabolism back on track after destroying it on VLCD :( I am hoping this works, because this is how I plan to eat…

UGH I am right there with all of you! :( Best of Luck! :)

This is the update thread...ok....TOM is over...almost 2 months into this (EM2WL) ....same 2 pounds lost and gained. I am being patience but this SUCKS!!! Just needed to vent and wish everyone a happy labor day :) At this rate It will take 10 years to lose my last 30 pounds...feeling discouraged but hopeful at the same…

UGH people have no tact...for me it all boils down to boundaries and being assertive. If someone called me a chair it certainly doesn't mean I am one! Keep moving forward and rising above. Use your voice ( although the punch them in the face comment had me rolling) LOL Lots of great advice...mean people suck..especially…

I create a recipe for every type of salad I eat...it makes things ALOT quicker and easier for me....that's just my opinion and how I do it...good luck and hope you find a solution that works for you :)

I had used it for years , mood stabilizer for bipolar...it is supposed to be weight neutral but I found that I gained a bit of weight , but not as much as other mood meds......also side effect for me, caused numbness in my hands and feet...just my experience. good luck with the migraines, UGH they are terrible!

mmmm.....this sounds good, thanks

Thank you...I will try it this way..sounds good to me! ;)

I love PB2.....I use in in protein shakes, in protein brownies and protein pancakes and protein pudding. I mix it with water and no sugar added jam for a sweet treat. I mix it w/water and spread on a rice cake, I use it in pad thai recipes. I use it mixed with cool whip and freeze it for a treat. I could go on....its…

1 cup almond milk unsweetened ( vanilla ) 1 scoop favorite protein powder ( I use cake batter flavor) 1 tbsp powdered peanut butter ( pb2) 2 cups baby spinach ( blend in batches for smoother texture) add ice per taste 188 calories **This is good by itself or as a base to add fruit...etc** This is the best breakfast for me!…

Glad I found this...just started my cut after 4 weeks reset..UGH gained almost 7 pounds...tummy looked huge and felt totally bloated and terrible but I was patient like everyone said. I am a week into my cut and already down 5 pounds. THANK YOU I have been doing a 20 % cut and am VERY hungry so I have to experiment with…
